DELHI TOWNSHIP, MI -- A pair of men have been arrested and charged in the weekend robbery of a Delhi Township gas station.

Alvin Franklin, Jr., 59, of East Lansing, and Wilbert Brewer, 37, of Lansing, were arraigned Tuesday in Ingham County District Court in Mason.

Franklin is charged with robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery, charges that serve as a habitual offender notice and could amplify a potential sentence. Brewer is charged with robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery.

The Ingham County Sheriff's
Office Delhi Division said the pair entered Speedway at
Bishop Road and M-99 about 2:15 a.m. Saturday. They indicated to the store's clerk
they had a weapon and threatened his life.

Franklin and Brewer demanded
the clerk hand over cash from the register. The clerk obliged, according to police, and the suspects also took several lottery tickets.

The suspects struck the clerk in the back of the head, inflicting minor injuries. They fled the scene in a U-Haul truck, according to police.

Authorities
located the truck Saturday afternoon, and subsequently arrested the pair.

Franklin's bond was set at $50,000 cash surety. Brewer's bond was set at $25,000 cash surety. They are both lodged at the Ingham County Jail in Mason.
